Show up for Events in the Community Park

May 16, 2018 By BIll

This article could give your clients some ideas for the summer. Send the Promotional Times to your clients and prospects each month.

The arrival of spring brings warmer days and events begin to move outdoors! Movies, concerts, and family sessions are starting to become regular things; dining and lounging al fresco and people watching is kicking off again.

Find out when the next event is and reach out to who’s putting it on. Many of these organizations are nonprofits looking for community sponsors to provide some of the extras to keep the events moving. Team up for a ticket package and offer up these foldable picnic blankets with a family pack of tickets. You’ll get the exposure at the event with your brand on the blanket, be mentioned in signage, and continue that exposure every time the recipients spread out to picnic all spring and summer long.

SELECT THE RIGHT PRODUCTS

January 19, 2017 By BIll

Select the right promotional products to meet your needs. Don’t just throw some money in the barrel, or shotgun your dollars to find a one-size-fits-all product. You can maximize your results by targeting your dollars toward your goals.   Rely upon your promotional products experts to help you sort through products and select the right ones to meet your goals.

 

 

 

First ask yourself, “WHAT do I want to accomplish?” Be specific about what you want to do. Is it to…

Say thanks to good customers?

Publicize an upcoming event?

Educate people?

Keep your name in front of clients or potential clients?

Motivate your employees?

 

Then think about WHO your target is for this mission. It could be…

High level executives; or

The gatekeepers at big companies; or

Small business owners; or

Salespeople; or

Local teenagers; or

Parents of school children; or

The general public; or

Any group.

Now consider what products might be used again and again by members of the group you are targeting. For example, someone that sits at a desk most of the day might find a paperweight or desk clock useful,

Don’t Forget the Kids!

January 16, 2017 By BIll

Don’t Forget the Kids!

Building a relationship with the entire family is important for business. Studies show that children as young as three have strong brand recognition. Building a rapport with kids can create life long relationships and brand loyalty. One report stated that children are not only great purchasers but also exhibit great influence on their parents purchase decisions. Children’s influence on the market is estimated to be around $1.88 trillion.

For years Delta Air Lines gave out “tiny fliers” to their younger passengers. This tiny pin featuring wings and the Delta logo influenced their parents decision to use that airline, and as adults these children accumulated frequent flyer miles with that company. Remembering the children with something as small as a pin, a packet of crayons, or a balloon can influence repeat business.

Larger items, like cool decorative pens, can become a part of a child’s toy box. Kids will take an item like this with them to places like show and tell at school. Giving a child their favorite item can inspire a lifelong love for your company and show the parents that you care.

A kid’s kit with your brand name imprinted on it can be of fun for children and something they show their friends. This can create additional traffic to your business as children encourage their friends to get their own.

Don’t Dash for Cash

November 19, 2013 By Kaitlin

The days of cash incentives for performance are becoming a thing of the past. Such rewards are effective for a short time but quickly become an expected part of a salesperson’s income and end up being used to pay bills. Successful companies are examining new ways of motivating their sales force and have found the following programs very effective:
-Referral Rewards
-Giving out scratch off prize cards
-Reward every tenth order
-Issue play money to each salesperson

Remember: The road to success is paved one mile at a time.
